I hope I don't kill them

I finally took the covers off my new seedlings and the outcome is more than what I could have hoped for. Everything sprouted and is thriving, including the hibiscus. I'm so excited! I decided to show you pictures of these little plants, because what's about to happen to them, no plant deserves. I think it's time to transplant to individual pots. I just hope they survive. I think I have decided to watch the stores and when the seed starter kits go on sale, I'm going to snatch them up. I think I would like to use those next year instead of the milk cartons. The cartons worked out fine, but they became a little troublesome when removing the tops. Anyway, I should be able to get the kits pretty cheap in a month or so.



This is the hibiscus I'm so happy about. You can see that there are two little sprouts. I'm hoping I can make these work.
I think these will be particularly difficult to separate because they have kind of wrapped themselves around each other so I'm a little nervous about it. This is a Campanula Bell Flower.

Scabiosa. I almost want to plant this one right here because it must really love this location!
I wanted to show you that my hostas have started coming back. So far this one looks very happy. I have three other hosta plants showing and they are looking great also.
